Short profile

My interests encompass various research areas in epidemiology and public health evaluation, from methodology, substantive analyses in different research topics, and software implementation. My methodological work focuses on the development of study designs and statistical methods, applied in particular to time series analysis, quasi-experimental studies, and survival data. I have contributed to the development and extensions of a number of statistical techniques, such as distributed lag models, smoothing methods and meta-analytical models. My substantive research topics cover several of areas, from investigations of the health effects of environmental or occupational factors to evaluation of public health interventions. ​I am a strong advocate of open science and reproducible research, and have contributed with the implementation of statistical methods in freely-available software and with release of code in public repositories. My current research focuses on studies on the impact of weather and climate change on health.
